ITT: Old Characters that was push to be popular

Not really, though I was born in the late 80s so my elders all grew up with and talked about the Hulk tv show and I grew up with the Hulk being present in cartoons and video games

Hulk for me was always one of the most recognizable super heroes, basically superman, batman, wonder woman, spider-man, x-men, and hulk

Well, his first appearance, he didn't sell well and became a villain to the F4.

>>94219303
Oh, well if you're talking about when Hulk was first created, no I don't remember that at all since not born

HAWKMAN is the ultimate example of this.
DC will not let Hawkman die, even if no one has cared about him for 50+ years.

They should have remade him into birdman.

Hulk has been my favorite hero since childhood.

>>94219184
My son is 2 and his favourite superhero is the Hulk. I really hope they give him his own movie again, soon.

Also, Ang Lee's Hulk is kino.

>>94219184
He is pretty boring.

Read the Bill Mantlo and PAD runs then

Marvel refuses to stop making Ghost Rider comics, but as far as I know they've always sold poorly.

The only issue with Hulk is that writers always reset his character, where he'll get over his anger issues or solve being the Hulk only to once again go back to the same old shit

Hulk has always been popular and a huge icon of pop culture.

>soon
They won't. They even came out and said they don't plan on it any time soon. Universal owns the rights to the hulk and they don't want to work with marvel and let him have his own movie

>>94219184
>Remember when people found hulk boring?
so always

>>94219184
I have say, than previous those movies, nobody fucking cared about IronMan and Thor

>>94219491
The sad thing is, that Hawkman has some of the better Golden Age stories and art.
He's like an Indiana Jones that can fly.

>>94221774
A Gamma World Hulk movie wpuld be awesome. You can introduce She Hulk and use some B list Avengers for it. Wrecking crew debut as well.

Hawkman himself is a shitty character placed in the middle of some good stories. Once you get past the complicated origins, what else does the character have going for them? The angry conservative to green arrow's liberalism was an interesting angle that went nowhere and other than that, he's bland and vanilla

>>94219184
Like they do today?

>>94219184
I still find him boring.

>>94224069
No.

>>94224088
Then keep being a pleb.

>>94219468
So why does /co/ keep recommending Hawkworld and Hawkman v4.

>>94223805
Shirtless fanservice, Indiana Jones adventures, and historical / period pieces. Hawkman and Hawkgirl were Aquaman and Mera tier marriage wise pre crisis.

You haven't read Hawkworld, have you?
